Almond Pulp Date Macaroons

Waste nothing, or as a little as possible.  If you routinely make almond milk, you’ll want to find ways to use the left-over almond pulp.  One of the things to do is make this almond body scrub, but another is to make Almond Pulp Macaroons.  These gluten-free and vegan treats are a guest favorite at the Sugar Ridge Retreat Center, a yoga retreat in Ontario, Canada — they adapted this recipe from the Yoga Journal.

A tasty treat which makes the most of almond pulp leftover from making your own Almond Milk

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup almond pulp
  • cup Medjool dates - pitted (see note)
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • teaspoon almond or vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil
  • cup shredded coconut - unsweetened

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine dates, almond pulp, sea salt, and almond or vanilla extract in a food processor and pulse until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add shredded coconut and coconut oil and pulse until thoroughly mixed.
  • Scoop 1 tablespoon portions (12 total) of the batter, roll into balls between your palms and place on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake until golden, 25-30 minutes. Cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Spa Index Kitchen Notes

We prefer "blonde" dates like Baari, for a lighter, warmer flavor and color. If you love chocolate you can add a few tablespoons of cocoa into the mix before baking or drizzle melted chocolate over the finished macaroons.
